The StrathspeyThe Highland strathspey takes its name from the area
of Strathspey in Inverness-shire. One of the main features is the Scots snap.
The strathspey is a dance performed by four dancers and the dancers take a long
step or stride at the beginning.
More information on the dances and examples of tunes to illustrate them can be found in “Traditional Scottish Fiddling” by Christine Martin and in the “Ceilidh Collection for Fiddlers” series of four books.
